Material examined. Italy, Provincia di Bolzano, Schlern/Sciliar massif, alpine meadow below rock face (46°30,67'N, 11°35,31'E, 2220 m a.s.l., 04 August 2007: 2 females, leg. Irene Schatz),ibid., subalpine dwarf-shrubs (46°30,71' N, 11°35,34' E, 2170 m a.s.l., 01 July 2007: 2 females, 2 males, leg. H. Schatz),ibid., summit of Mount Petz (46°20,76' N, 11°34,60' E, 2550 m a.s.l., 01 July 2007: 5 specimens, leg. H. Schatz). Remarks. The main characters of our material correspond well with the keys and the figures given in Schweizer (1956), Shaldybina (1975) and Pavlitshenko (1994). In the literature mentioned, only figures of the dorsal view and short descriptions are available, hence the redescription. Irk (1939) described T. montanus from high mountains of the Central Alps in Tyrol (recorded in the Oetztal and Stubai Alps, 2100-3050 m a.s.l., but also near Umhausen at 1036 m a.s.l.). Subsequently, Franz (1943) and Willmann (1951) recorded this species firom the High Tauern Mountains near the Grossglockner at 2400- 2700 m a.s.l. in high alpine conditions. Later, Niedbała and Olszanowski (1997) reported this species in the checklist of oribatid mites of Poland (without locality data). According to the figure and description given by Irk (1939), T. montanus is very similar to T. monticola. Moreover, Willmann (1951) and Schweizer (1956) noted that T. montanus has similar characters to T. monticola. Recently, Subías (2004, 2008) considered the former species as a junior synonym of T. monticola. Examination of type material is necessary to clarify this synonymy. However, the type material of T. monticola could not be traced. It should be mentioned that Janetschek (1957) recorded T. montanus from the Langkofel/Sasso Lungo mountain in the Dolomites, which is close to the Schlern/Sciliar mountains where T. monticola was found. This also indicates a possible synonymy of T. montanus with T. monticola. According to the present knowledge of their distribution, both T. monticola and T. montanus occur in the Alps, mainly in the higher altitudes and seems to have survived the last glaciation on nunataks, but spread into lower habitats during the post-glaciation period (Janetschek 1957). Distribution. Trichoribates monticola is known from Swedish Lapland (Sarek mountains, original description, Trägärdh 1902), Iceland (several records, listed in Gjelstrup & Solhøy 1994), European Russia (near Pskov: Krivolutsky et al. 1995), Bohemia and Moravia of Czech Republic (Krkonoše and Hrubý Jeseník mountains, several other records, Franz 1954; Starý 2000a, 2000b), Swiss Alps (Grisons 1780-2950 m a.s.l., Schweizer 1956), Southern Alps (present study), Bulgaria (Balkan, Rila range, 2925 m a.s.l., Csiszár & Jeleva 1962). Shaldybina (1975) and Pavlitshenko (1994) mention a record of this species from the Carpathian mountains in Ukraine, but this record is doubtful and could not be confirmed. Thus, all these records indicate an arctoalpine distribution of T. monticola. : Published as part of Bayartogtokh, B. & Schatz, H., 2008, Trichoribates and Jugatala (Acari: Oribatida: Ceratozetidae) from the Central and Southern Alps, with notes on their distribution, pp. 1-35 in Zootaxa 1948 on pages 9-13 |
